Selby, North Yorkshire has
undergone many changes over the past few years, it now attracts
shoppers from all over the country due to its ever growing
number and variety of shops, couple this together with the ample
parking available throughout the town and you soon realise why
more and more people are frequenting Selby for their shopping
needs.

From well known high street
stores right down to the quaint back street tea rooms, Selby has
something for everyone. whether you are shopping, sight seeing,
working or just passing through, you can't help but notice what
Selby has to offer. Not only does Selby boast a large range of
shops but it also hosts one of the best open air markets in
Yorkshire, every Monday all year round shoppers come from miles
around for some excellent bargains.

Local business has also been on the increase for a number of
years, which has led to a lot of people relocating to the area,
this in turn has meant the need for more new housing
developments in the area which has been subtly achieved by the
local planning office without over development of the area

The Abbey Church which stands at the end of
the Market Place is the most prominent building in Selby and
forms, together with the Abbot's Staithe, all that remains of a
large monastery founded in the year 1069 by the monk Benedict
who travelled from Auxerre in France. William the Conqueror who
was in York at the time, gave Benedict permission to found the
Abbey and granted him lands to support it.

Benedict however did little building and it
fell to his successor Abbot Hugh to carry out most of the
building work. The present building is largely that planned by
Hugh except that the decorated choir was added some hundred
years later. Until the dissolution by Henry VIII in 1539, town
activities were dominated by the requirements of the Abbey.
Indeed Selby town owes its very existence to the monastery.
